My Mums lost her front tooth..Help!!!

**Eric Hall** · 12-30-2008, 04:19 PM

Hi all
I hope that you can help me.... My Mother has always been plagued by dental problems for as long as I can remember, 15-16 years ago many of her front teeth were chipped decayed and rotten, she was scared stiff of the dentist but over time decided to go and get partial dentures fitted.
She is now 70 years of age and her one remaining front tooth has just dropped out, she is happy to just leave it now, but it is my Sisters wedding next April, and she is upset that her mother will be toothless in the photos.
My Mother is scared of visiting the dentist again, convinced nothing can be done and that it will be painful, and we can't afford expensive implants or even to redo her dentures. Are there any economical temporary solutions that would be a Happy Compromise for my sisters big day? I would be very grateful if you could advise me.

Happy New Year

Eric Hall

Hi

My advice would be to have a new tooth added to her existing denture. This would be the cheapest and quickest.

It really depends on quality of teeth used as there are a number on the market. The price starts from £60 for an average quality tooth.
